Configuration Brief Guide to Initial Configuration
Note: In order to use all the new system software functions, we recommend that you download the latest software from our Web site at http://www.aastra-detewe.de.
For the initial configuration you can connect the PC to the OpenCom 100 via the
Ethernet port. A COM port can also be used. The TCP/IP network protocol is used to set up a connection via one of these ports. You can then open the Web console of the OpenCom 100 and call up the Configurator from there.
Note: To avoid problems with existing network installations, the OpenCom 100’s DHCP server is designed for static address assignment in its factory settings. The
OpenCom 100’s IP address is always168.99.254 in its factory settings.
